Funded Jan 4, 2024It is with much gratitude that I humbly thank you for the generous donations of snacks for students to enjoy after school and during our College Lounge.
As you may have read, many of our students are first generation college applicants. As such, the college process can sometimes be lengthier and more challenging than for students whose parents have attended college. We spend long hours researching, filling out applications, writing essays and grappling with financial aid and scholarship forms. It is always fulfilling but can sometimes be a struggle. Some of our students are being supported with additional work needed to complete course requirements for graduation. Either way, being in school from 8:00AM- 5:00PM is a long day, and teenagers are hungry!
Your generous donations allowed for our students to put in the extra time needed to succeed by helping to keep stomachs full and brain power fueled. We are very grateful and thankful for you seeing us, recognizing us and supporting us.”
With gratitude,
Ms. Jennifer Carchietta
